CHOOSING THE RIGHT LOCATION FOR YOUR NEW MIXER
SRM6O+/SRMSO+
When selecting the best location for the mixer, it is helpful to consider the following:
.
Where is the best location for the operator, both for saving steps and easy
viewing?
s
Is this a good location for product flow as in:
*
Easyto get ingredients to the mixer?
s
Destination ofthe mix alter mixing?
.
Is there existing electrical service at this location?
.
Does this location provide easy access for cleaning and service?
.
Check to be sure that your mixer with attachments does not extend out
into heavy traffic areas.
.
Ifstands and/or portable equipment are used along side ofyour mixer,
can they be moved easily to and from your mixer?
.
Ifunit is not provided with a plug, then the unit is to be fitted with a primary disconnectdevice that has a contact separation of at least 3mm in all poles.
IMPORTANT ELECTRICAL SERVICE INFORMATION
Electrical wiring instructions are found in the wiring diagram (Figures l2Athru 12C). Before making
electrical connections, CHECK the specifications on the nameplate to make sure that they agree with
those on your electric service.
USER-FRIENDLY SWING RINGTMSAFETY GUARD
Your SRM6O+/SRMSO+ Mixer features a newly updated, 2-part safety guard. The Swing RingTM
Safety Guard ring is easily be removed and installed, as well as dishwasher safe. It conveniently swingsout ofthe way without having to be removed to place or sample ingredients in the bowl. Only one side
ofthe guard needs to be open when adding ingredients. You'llfindthis twopiece design is easy to
handle and fits conveniently in your sink or dishwasher. It also provides a clear view ofthe product
throughoutthe mixing cycle.
This mixerwifi not operate unless the Swing Ring1M Safety Guard Is properly engaged.
Metal tabs atthe rear ofthe guard activate twin switches that enable the mixer to run only when the
guard is securely closed. These switches protect against accidental operation ofthe mixer when thesafety guard is open or removed from the mixer. The mixer wìll automatically stop ifthe guard is open.Additional switches in the bowl slide mechanism automatically stop the mixer ifthe bowl is lowered
from the "up" (mixing) position.
To Install the Swing Ring
Safety Guard, insert the pointed end ofthe rod at the rear ofthe guard into
the lower mounting bracket on the mixer housing. Then insert the top end ofthe rod into the upper
bracket by aligning the groove in the rod with the slot inthe bracket Press the rod in and allow it to drop

down into position. Repeat this for each ofthe two sections ofthe guard. Swing the two halves of the
guard forward. When the guard is properly closed, the switches are now activated and the mixer can be
operated.
To remove the guard, simply reverse the installation procedure. Grip the two halves ofthe guard andpull it open. Use an upward motion to release each halfofthe guard from the bracket on the machine
body.
To open the guard for access to the bow1 first turn the mixer off by pushing the red stop button
(Fig. i [1 2]). Pull open the two halves ofthe guard and swing one or both outward, It is not necessary toremove them. Close the guard to resume mixing operations.
OPERATING THE SRM3O+ MIXER
Your Univex Mixer is designed to meet the cook's and Baker's demand for an efficient, dependableappliance. It should give unfailing performance over a period ofyears when operated and maintained
according to the instructions contained herein.
The mixer drives various agitator attachments through a beater head shalt to beat, mix,
viscous, or dry ingredients. The shaft is driven by a sturdy motor
whose
power is transmitted by a
rugged, cogged belt and a Continuously Variable Transmission (CVT)through a geartrain and
planetary gear set. The speed ofthe beater shaft can be varied from approximately 60 to 270 revolutionper minute (rpm)for SRMSO+ and 75 tO 340rpm for SRM6O+. (See page IO & i i for part numbers of
various agitators, attachments and accessories.)
The SRM6O+/SRM8O+ Mixer is equipped with a power take-off(PTO)that operates other attachments
such as slicers, graters and grinders. The PTO speed can be varied from 85 to
or whip liquid,
385
rpmfor SRMSO+ and
a
SRM6O+. Be sure to read and follow any safety Instructions provided by the manufacturers of
attachments that you operate on the PTO. The PTO hub should be covered with the PTO cap
provided with your mixer when in use.
Warning--Never put hands, spoons, utensils or other objects into the bowl while the mIxer is
operating!
Note: Noise emissions are below 70db (A).
Securing the Bowl & Installing the Mixer Agitator.
Place the bowl on the bowl support (Fig. i [15]). The indentation on the rim ofthe bowl must align with
the corresponding pin on the mixer housing. Align the holes on eighter side ofthe bowl rimon the bowl support andlower the bowl into position. Secure the bowl by turning the bowl clamps (Fig.
i [16]).
With the bowl in the "down" position, installthe desired agitator by sliding it upward onto the beater
shaft (Fig. 1 [1]). Rotate the agitator counter-clockwise until it is engaged.
Safety Note Serious injusy may result ifthe bowl is not fully secured to the bowl support using the bowl
support pins and firmly closingthe clamps.

Using the Bowl Lift
The mixer will not operate unless the bowl is inthe "up " position. Raise the bowl by tuming the bowl

Using the Ingredients Chute
The ingredients chute provided with your mixer enables you to add ingredients to the bowl while the
mixer is running, and without opening or removing the Swing RingTM Safety Guard. The chute may be
installed on the front or side ofeither halfofthe guard. See below. Once the chute is properly installed,
it can remain in place permanently, if desired.
Ingredients Chute Installation
Slide the bottom ofthe chute between horizontal safety guard rings and engage
the chute onto the safety guard.
Bowl Doffies & Adapter
Dollies (Page 10 & i i [h]), simpliÍj moving large, heavy batches to the next location. To use 40 for SO
bowl or 30 for 60 bowl withthe dolly, you must use a bowl adapter (Page 10 & 11 [i)). To remove
heavy batches from the mixer, first place the dolly underthe bowl. Then open the bowl clamps and
lower the bowl to the dolly. Be sure the bowl support pins clear the bowl mounting brackets beforemoving the bowl and dolly.
Using Smaller Bowl
For maximum flexibility, an alternative 30 for 60 quart bowl is available for use on your SRM6O+
Mixer, and a 40 for SO and 60 for 80 for use on your SRM8O+ Mixer. Specially sized agitators must be
used. See page lO & i i for part numbers.
Splash/Extension Ring
A splash/extension ring (page 10 & 11 [j]) mounted to the bowl helps confme ingredients during the
mixing ofcertain recipes. The ring should never be used to overload a mìxer beyond its recommended
capacity. Consultthe Table ofMixing Capacities on page 8 & 9 when you are unsure of appropriate
loads.
USING THE POWER TAKE-OFF (PTO)
The power take-offhub (Fig. 1[5}) accommodates #12 tapered attachments suchand Shredder, or a Meat and Food Chopper. The mixer's speed control lever also controls the PTO drive
speed.
Before installing attachments, turn the mixer off. Remove the PTO cap and loosen the thumb screw (Fig.
i [6]) on the PTO hub. Insertthe attachment with a slighttwist until firmly in place. Tighten the thumb
as a Vegetable Slicer
screw. Be sure to read and follow any safety instructions provided for attaclunents that you
operate on the PTO.
